Srđan Andrić (born 5 January 1980) is a Croatian former professional footballer who played as a defensive midfielder. He was most recently the youth academy director of Hajduk Split.
Andrić started his career with Croatia's Hajduk Split. He made his debut for the club in the 1999–2000 Prva HNL aged 19 years old. He spent the next four seasons at Hajduk, becoming the captain for the 2003-04 season.
Andric then moved to Greek giants Panathinaikos in 2004 in a deal worth €150k.
He was released from Panathinaikos upon the expiration of his contract in May 2007, before rejoining Hajduk. He quickly became club captain again after the departure of Mirko Hrgović.
After over 100 appearances and five years in his second stint at the Split based side, on 1 August 2012, he joined UAE Pro-League outfit Al-Wahda for the 2012-13 season. After a relatively unsuccessful season in the UAE, he retired from football in 2013.
In total, Andric made 266 appearances for Hajduk over his two stints.
He made his debut for Croatia in a March 2002 friendly match against Slovenia and has earned a total of 2 caps, scoring 1 goal. His final international was a February 2003 friendly draw with Macedonia in which game he scored the final goal of the game.[1]
Hajduk announced that he had been appointed the chief of the youth academy on 19 March 2014, after a period out of the game. On 24 May 2016, he resigned as youth academy director after his contract was not renewed.[2]
